Features & Benefits

Benefits

Ball bearing effect and spreadibility
The physical shape, round and smooth surface, makes E+ provide very good lubricity. Its lubricity enhances their spreadibility as well. E+ imparts silky texture to applications. Especially, bigger particle size of E+, such as E+ 710 and 715, has better fluidity. They flow like water.

High optical performance
The refractive index of E+ is 1.42. It shows different optical performance in the various resins or solvent (polycarbonate: 1.58, polystyrene: 1.59, polyamide: 1.53, polyethylene: 1.5, polymethyl methacrylate: 1.49). Generally, the higher ΔRI (RI of resin - RI of powder) is, the more manifest light diffusing is.

Soft focus effect
Especially in the cosmetic applications, E+ enhances the soft focus effect. The small particle of E+ makes light scattered and reflected back. This function brightens wrinkles and keeps face defects hidden optically. The light diffusing function of E+ reduces sharpness of makeup lines and enhances natural finish in applying cosmetics.

Perfect water repellency
E+ offers remarkable water repellency. It is applicable to various applications that required water proof property. E+ does not absorb water at all and shows the function permanently.

Easy applicability
Unlike other polymeric powder, E+ is very stable in the chemical formulation. E+ does not swell in the formulation. Due to the high heat resistance property of E+, customers can expect better quality of their applications, which require high heat temperature processes.
